COVID-19 Updates

Here are some helpful links to find out more about Government restrictions and how they may impact your travels:

• Government of Canada Travel advice and advisories website
• COVID-19 measures, updates, and guidance issued by Transport Canada
• ArriveCAN – download the app to enter your mandatory travel information on and after your entry into Canada

Below is the latest information relating to COVID-19 and how it's impacting GMS travel coverage.

November 1, 2021

On October 22, 2021, the Government of Canada lifted the global COVID-19 "avoid non-essential travel" advisory and announced they'll soon be updating advice and advisories by country. If you're planning to travel, be sure to review the government advisory website before booking or leaving on your trip. Travel advisories can impact your coverage.

With the global COVID-19 advisory lifted our Immigrants & Visitors to Canada Insurance Plan (VTC) will once again cover short trips outside of Canada to desinations without an "avoid all travel" and "avoid non-essential" travel advisory.

Please note, there's been no change to COVID-19 coverage for TravelStar Emergency Medical Plans, or Personal Health, Replacement Health, Group Advantage or Custom/Association Group Plans with an annual travel benefit. Customers with any of these plans have coverage for medical expenses related to a positive diagnosis of COVID-19 up to $500,000 of their emergency medical maximum

July 7, 2021

We've opened sales of TravelStar Single-Trip and Multi-Trip Annual Emergency Medical Plans.

New plans sold on or after July 7, 2021 will provide emergency medical coverage in countries where there is only an "Avoid Non-Essential Travel" travel advisory due to COVID-19.

Plans will also include up to $500,000 in coverage for COVID-19 emergency medical expenses.

May 6, 2021

On May 6, 2021 our Immigrants & Visitors to Canada Insurance Plans (VTC) will include coverage for emergency medical expenses related to COVID-19. This applies to plans purchased on or after May 6 2021, and to existing plans too.

Important Reminders:

• We'll be treating COVID-19 like any other medical condition. Coverage could be impacted if you've been diagnosed with COVID-19 180 days before your effective date.

These are questions about the travel emergency medical coverage for our Personal Health, Replacement Health, and Group benefit plans, along with our TravelStar Emergency Medical Plans.

I have a plan that includes out-of-country emergency medical coverage. If I travel abroad, do I have medical coverage for emergencies? 

As of November 12, 2020, you have coverage as long as:

• You’re travelling while your policy is effective;
• Your trip is within the number of days you have coverage for, from your departure date;

I have a plan that includes emergency medical coverage. Do I have coverage for COVID-19 if I travel outside of Canada?

Examples would be (but not limited to) terrorism, high crime, violence, civil unrest, other health notices, etc.

Your coverage would be in effect until your plan expires. Extensions would not be available though.

Can I extend my GMS emergency medical coverage if I need to be away longer due to COVID-19 travel disruptions?

This is only for customers with an Individual Health or TravelStar plan. If you're a group plan member, check your policy to see if an automatic coverage extension is included with your plan.

If you're going to be stranded or delayed more than three days due to the COVID-19 disruptions you can purchase a policy extension if you:

I cancelled my trip because of the Canadian government’s Global Travel Advisory – what do I do?

A travel advisory must be in effect on your scheduled travel dates. Please click here for further information on how and when to submit your claim.

My travel supplier is only offering a voucher/credit for the full value of my cancelled trip, but I'd like a cash refund instead. Can I make a claim?

Our Trip Cancellation Plans offer coverage for costs that can’t be recovered when a trip is cancelled - for example a non-refundable deposit. If your supplier has offered a voucher/credit for the total value of your cancelled trip, it’s considered a full refund under your Trip Cancellation Plan. With a full refund available in voucher/credit form, there is no cost to be recovered, and a claim cannot be made.

With that said, you may be eligible for a premium refund. Please call us at
1-800-667-3699 for more information.

Any disputes over refunds and vouchers/credits should be directed to your travel provider, transportation carrier, or the Canadian Transportation Agency.

My travel supplier has cancelled my trip due to the Canadian government’s Global Travel Advisory – can I submit a claim for it now?

Yes. Click here to get started. A call isn’t necessary to start the claim process.

My trip was cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic – can I get a premium refund for my plan?

You’d be eligible for a premium refund if your travel supplier (ex. airline, tour operator, cruise ship, etc):

• cancelled the trip and gave you a full refund with all penalties waived; or
• changed the travel dates and gave you a full refund with all penalties waived because you’re unable to travel on the new dates.
  
  

Can I extend my Trip Cancellation Insurance if I’ve been delayed returning to Canada?

There’s no need to extend your policy if you’re delayed returning home. You can submit a claim for your interrupted trip once you get back home.

My vacation’s been rescheduled by my travel supplier - can I change the dates of my Trip Cancellation Insurance?

Yes, you can change the dates of your coverage as long as you haven’t left on your trip and your new departure date is within 18 months from the date you purchased your plan.

Does my Trip Cancellation Insurance cover changes and cancellations due to COVID-19?

Yes, you have coverage as long as there was no travel advisory to “avoid non-essential” or “avoid all travel” before you purchased your plan. For Multi-trip plans, you have coverage if there was no travel advisory in place before your purchase date or booking date.

If I have to cancel my trip before I’m scheduled to leave because I’ve been diagnosed with COVID-19 or am in self-quarantine because I’ve been exposed to COVID-19, will my Trip Cancellation Insurance cover expenses?

Yes, you’d have coverage under your Trip Cancellation plan.

I’m returning to Canada early because the Canadian government advised all Canadians to return home. What will my trip cancellation insurance cover?

Your plan will cover the cost to change your ticket or book one-way transportation home, whichever’s less. You’ll also have coverage for unused, non-refundable tickets, accommodations, car rentals, etc.

We believe it’s our responsibility to be there for our customers in situations like the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re committed to providing support and solutions to individuals and families covered under our Personal and Replacement Health Plans. Starting March 27th, we’re implementing a number of exceptions to our regular business practices for the duration of the provincial states of emergency. These will serve as relief measures to our existing customers during this unprecedented time.

What services or support is available to customers during the pandemic?

Our health plans are intended to help you live well and afford the care you need. During these uncertain times, emergency medical coverage is more important than ever. 

We thrive on helping our customers live well and making sure they can access care when health challenges arise. For example, our individual health plans give customers access to mental health professionals. Plus, all of our Personal Health plans provide access to LifeWorks, a total wellness program that includes components geared to improve your mental, physical, financial and social wellbeing. 

My policy's coming up for renewal and I might not be able to afford the whole year. Are there payment options?

You bet. We know paying for the whole year up front isn’t always doable, so you also have the option to pay monthly. You can even set up convenient automatic monthly withdrawals from your bank account. Give us a call at 1.800.667.3699 and one of our Customer Care Representatives will set you up on the payment plan that suits your needs.

I can't make my yearly payment. I may need to cancel, but I don't want to lose my benefits. Can you help me?

We're here to make sure you're able to keep your health benefits throughout this challenging time. To help, we have options such as a 30-day grace period for your premium payment. Please call us at 1.800.667.3699, and we'll work with you to find your best option.

At GMS we believe it is our responsibility to do our best to provide support in situations such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

Will truck drivers delivering goods across the US/Canada border still have Emergency Out-of-Country Medical coverage?

In collaboration with the Canadian Life and Health Insurance Association, GMS fully supports the continuation of cross-border trade with the United States during the COVID-19 pandemic. As such, we will guarantee Emergency Out-of-Country Medical coverage for truck drivers hauling essential goods over the US/Canada border.

My business has been negatively impacted by COVID-19 causing things such as temporary layoffs, business closures or other financial hardships. How can GMS help?

We have a variety of options to support your business through COVID-19. Each situation will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. If your group qualifies, extended grace periods, deferrals of payments and suspension of coverage and premiums may be available. Send us an email with your group name and number to group@gms.ca and we will contact you as soon as possible to discuss how we can help you and your business during this difficult time.

What if I have laid off some or all of my employees?  How is my Group Benefits plan affected?

As each groups’ needs may vary, we encourage you to reach out to us at group@gms.ca. We can discuss potential solutions and next steps for your company. If you would like to keep employees on your benefits plan after a layoff, you may do so. However, you will need to notify us and their premiums will need to continue to be paid.

Do I need to notify GMS to extend Health and Dental benefits to employees on temporary layoff?

Yes. Please let us know, within 31 days, which of your employees have been temporarily laid off. We will update our records and set a follow-up date to return them to employed status.

Are short- and long-term disability benefits (LTD/STD) available during temporary layoffs? What is our layoff provision?

As disability benefits are income-related benefits, they generally are not available and do not continue during layoffs. However, if premiums are paid, during this time we can offer 90 days of disability coverage during a layoff without an amendment to your policy.

Do I need to notify GMS to extend Life and Disability benefits to employees on temporary layoff?

Yes. Please notify us within 31 days of the date of layoff. If premiums continue to be paid, you can extend benefits for up to 12 months (one year) for Life benefits and 90 days for Short-Term Disability/Long-Term Disability benefits.

I haven’t laid off employees, but their hours of work have been significantly reduced. How does that affect my plan?

Health & Dental Benefits:
We’re currently making an exception for employees who are working reduced hours due to COVID-19.  As long as we are notified, we will no longer apply our standard minimum number of hours worked requirement to remain eligible for benefits. To remove coverage for a plan member, a plan administrator must submit an employee termination or contact group@gms.ca.

Life & Disability Coverage: 
Should a plan member fall below the minimum number of hours noted in the policy, we must be notified of the date within 31 days. If the premiums continue to be paid, your employee(s) can maintain Life coverage for up to 12 months and Disability coverage for up to 90 days.

Who can I talk to about the wellbeing of my business and employees during this difficult time?

We offer an Employee and Family Assistance Program (EFAP) as an optional Group benefit. If your Group opted for this benefit, please visit the Homewood Health Website which provides a variety of resources and services available to help you through the COVID-19 pandemic or call the Homewood Health helpline at
1-800-663-1142.

If you are interested in adding this benefit to your employee benefits, please contact us at group@gms.ca or talk to your broker.

How have GMS’ operations been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic?

We’ve moved the majority of our office-based staff to working remotely to help minimize any potential spread of COVID-19. However, as of September 9, 2021, we’ve reopened the front counter at our Regina office for in-person service. We also continue to conduct regular business by phone, email and online.

With your staff working from home, how can I pay my plan premiums?

As of September 9, 2021, we’ve reopened the front counter at our Regina office for in-person service. We ask that customers using our front counter service follow the safety-first precautions we’ve put in place. These can be found in the “Maintaining Service” tab on the left-hand side of this page.

We also offer these methods for paying your premium:

Group benefit plan customers please contact group@gms.ca
Individual health customers please contact info@gms.ca.

If COVID-19 prevents me from working, do I qualify for short-term disability?

Here's how your short-term disability benefit works when it comes to employees needing to miss work due to COVID-19:

• If someone has tested positive or is waiting for test results for COVID-19.
  They can apply for short-term disability benefits. The waiting period and need for an Attending Physician's Statement to process their claim will be waived to make sure they receive benefits as soon as possible. This will support them during their immediate self-quarantine. If they have not been tested, their claim will be evaluated after a waiting period to allow time to first receive their test results.
  To apply:
  
  • fill out the Confirmation of Illness Form and Member Statement;
  • follow the instructions; and
  • submit it to lifedisability@assumption.ca
    
    
• If someone is experiencing symptoms but has not been tested for COVID-19.
  They can apply for short-term disability benefits. Their claim will be evaluated after a waiting period to allow time to first receive their test results. If someone is experiencing COVID-19 symptoms and have not yet been tested, we require them to get tested before completing their short-term disability claim.
  To apply:
  • fill out the Disability Claim Initial Request;
  • follow the instructions; and
  • submit it to lifedisability@assumption.ca
    
    
• If someone has no symptoms but has been told to self-quarantine by a government or healthcare professional.
  If working from home is not possible, Employment Insurance benefits should be used, not short-term disability benefits.
